- The present disclosure relates generally to food compositions, more specifically to pet food compositions and/or pet food products, such as compositions and/or products for feeding to cats or dogs.
- High meat content, foods and treats for pets are a desirable commodity for many pet owners. In devising new pet foods, a variety of different factors must be considered, such as factors affecting the likelihood that a pet owner (consumer) will purchase a product for their pet and factors affecting the likelihood that the pet will eat the food, which are not always the same, as explained below.
- A key attribute of treats is that they must be highly palatable to the animal to ensure that they are accepted immediately and consumers, that is, the pet owner, are not disappointed.
- This summary describes several embodiments of the presently-disclosed subject matter, and in many cases lists variations and permutations of these embodiments. This summary is merely exemplary of the numerous and varied embodiments. Mention of one or more representative features of a given embodiment is likewise exemplary. Such an embodiment can typically exist with or without the feature(s) mentioned; likewise, those features can be applied to other embodiments of the presently-disclosed subject matter, whether listed in this summary or not. To avoid excessive repetition, this summary does not list or suggest all possible combinations of features.
- In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a pet food.

- In some embodiments, there is provided a method of producing an edible pet food as described herein, wherein the method comprises combining an amount of meat comprising animal protein, an amount of a glucose-containing carbohydrate selected from a dextrin and an esterified starch to form a pet food composition, cooking the pet food composition with steam; drying the pet food composition, and, before or after the drying, applying a coating to the pet food composition to produce a pet food having the pet food composition in a core and the coating disposed thereon, wherein the pet food has a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt % (optionally from 15 to 40 wt %, optionally from 15 to 30 wt %, optionally from 15 to 25 wt %), and pet food has an animal protein content of at least 30 wt %. In an embodiment, the method comprises combining an emulsifier with the amount of meat comprising animal protein and an amount of a glucose-containing carbohydrate to form the pet food composition.
- In some embodiments, there is provided a method of producing a pet food, comprising: combining an amount of meat, an amount of a glucose-containing carbohydrate selected from a dextrin and an esterified starch, and an amount of at least one emulsifier to form a pet food composition; cooking the pet food composition with steam; and drying the pet food composition at a temperature of at least 90° C. to create a pet food having a moisture content of from 15 to 50 wt % (optionally from 15 to 40 wt %, optionally from 15 to 30 wt %, optionally from 15 to 25 wt %). In an embodiment, the method further involves, after the cooking and before or after the drying, applying a coating on the pet food product to produce a pet food having a core comprising the pet food product having a coating disposed thereon.
- In an embodiment, there is provided use of a component in an edible pet food having a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt % to reduce or prevent bloom formation on its surface, wherein the component is selected from (i) a chelant and (ii) a glucose-containing carbohydrate selected from an esterified dextrin and an esterified starch.
- In an embodiment, there is provided use of a component in an edible pet food comprising animal protein to reduce the chewiness and/or firmness of the pet food compared to a pet food lacking the component, wherein the component is selected from (i) a glucose-containing carbohydrate selected from a dextrin and an esterified starch and (ii) an emulsifier, and the pet food has a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt %.
- In an embodiment, there is provided use of a component in an edible pet food comprising animal protein to provide the pet food with (a) a resilience measured by Texture Profile Analysis of 0.14 or greater and/or (b) a cohesiveness measured by Texture Profile Analysis of 0.50 or greater, wherein the component is selected from (i) a glucose-containing carbohydrate selected from a dextrin and a starch and (ii) an emulsifier, and the pet food has a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt %.
- The edible pet food may be a cat treat (or a plurality of cat treats) or a dog treat (or a plurality of dog treats).
- Also provided herein is a pack comprising the edible pet food as described herein. The pack may have an interior chamber, and the chamber may comprise an amount of two or more gases, and wherein the two or more gases comprise at least 60 vol % nitrogen and at least 25 vol % carbon dioxide. The interior chamber may be airtight. The interior chamber may contain the pet food.
- The present disclosure provides pet food, which may be in the form of a treat for a cat or a dog.
- The present inventors have found that although many dry foods (e.g. having low moisture content—typically less than 15 wt. %), are palatable for cats and many wet foods (high moisture content—e.g. having a moisture content of above 50 wt. % on average) are palatable for cats, many semi-moist food products (e.g. containing approximately 15 to 50 wt. % moisture content) have not been found to be very palatable for cats. The present inventors have found that the intermediate moisture content of a semi-moist food can produce an undesirably chewy/cohesive texture, particularly when the protein content is high. Since the physiology of cats is not suited to chewing as their jaws are shaped for ripping and tearing, this may contribute to the reduced palatability of the semi-moist foods.
- The present inventors have found that one method of improving the palatability of semi-moist foods has been to apply a coating (sometimes referred to as a palatant) to the surface of the food to improve its appeal to the animal. However, with high meat content, semi-moist pet foods, this may not provide sufficient palatability.
- A further factor is that the preferences of consumers purchasing these treats may differ from those of their pets. The consumer, when purchasing high meat content foods for their animal, typically desires the food have a ‘meaty’ appearance. This meaty appearance can be enhanced by modulating the moisture content of some food products.
- Accordingly, whilst the animal may prefer to eat a pet food containing less moisture, the consumer may prefer to purchase a pet food that appears meatier and, in effect, may contain a higher moisture content. However, the present inventors have found that products of this type with a meaty appearance and a high meat content can have a texture that is unappealing to animals.
- In addition to the texture of the product, other factors must be considered. For example, pet foods must also be nutritious. Meat, in particular, is known to provide only limited amounts of vitamins and minerals and thus, in high meat content pet foods, sometimes vitamins and minerals are added to improve the nutritional value of the food. However, the present inventors have found that in some semi-moist foods, particularly those with added minerals, visible, white compounds develop on the surface of semi-moist pet foods over time once the product is in contact with air. This effect is referred to herein as “bloom”. It also occurs in semi-moist pet food that does not contain added minerals.
- The present inventors have found that the bloom effect is a result of the evaporation of moisture from the food when a packet is opened. Whilst an equilibrium between atmospheric moisture content and the moisture content of the food develop inside the packet, reducing the bloom, the removal of the food from the packaging causes moisture to evaporate due to the strong moisture gradient of the product relative to ambient humidity. This movement of water out of the product transports minerals contained within the product to the surface (efflorescence) where they are deposited, appearing as a white crust. This effect is exacerbated when using a palatant coating on semi-moist products comprising a mixture of fat and phosphates, which promote the conglomeration of the minerals as they are enthalpically incompatible with the high fat environment of the coating.
- The present disclosure provides a semi-moist pet food with a texture that has been found to be more palatable to animals, in particular, cats. The pet food is nevertheless be suitable for other animals, such as dogs.
- The improved texture may result from the inclusion of at least one dextrin in the pet food. The undesirable (chewy/cohesive) texture was found to be a result of a strong protein structure in the high meat content product. The dextrin interrupts the protein structure, weakening the product and enabling it to be broken apart more easily.
- The present improved texture may result from the inclusion of an emulsifier in the pet food. An emulsifier is also able to interrupt the protein structure within the pet food, weakening the product and enabling it to be broken apart more easily.
- The present disclosure also provides a semi-moist pet food for which bloom is reduced or prevented. The “reduction” of bloom may indicate that, in a given time period, e.g. 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours, the extent of bloom formation in a pet food is reduced, when the pet food is taken from an environment in which the moisture content of the pet food is in equilibrium with its surrounding (e.g. in a sealed pack) and placed in air under ambient conditions e.g. at standard temperature (e.g. 25° C.), standard pressure (100 kPa) and 40% relative humidity. The extent of bloom formation may be measured by the degree of lightening (or whitening) of the pet food during this period. The extent of bloom may also be measured by x-ray microanalysis to detect one or more of the following ions: K+, Ca2+, Na+, CO3 2− and P3O10 5−.
- The reduction or prevention of bloom may result from the inclusion of a chelant in the product. The chelant binds to the minerals, stabilizing them within the structure of the food, significantly reducing the enthalpic impetus for the minerals to migrate to the surface of the food with the water gradient.
- The reduction or prevention of bloom may result from the inclusion of a modified starch or dextrin, such as an octenyl succinate hydrolyzed starch in the product, in particular, in a coating on the surface of the product. The modified starch or dextrin binds fat in the coating and alters the polarity. This alters the electrostatic forces acting on the minerals such that the minerals remain dispersed within the fat-containing coating and therefore, the minerals remain as free ions and do not form deposits on the surface. Furthermore, the addition of an modified starch or dextrin, such as octenyl succinate hydrolyzed starch, to the coating improves the appearance of the food from the consumer's perspective, providing a shiny appearance that gives the appearance of meat.

- As mentioned, in some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a pet food. The pet food may be a semi-moist edible pet food, e.g. wherein the pet food has a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt % (optionally from 15 to 40 wt %, optionally from 15 to 30 wt %, optionally from 15 to 25 wt %). The pet food may comprise animal protein, e.g. in an amount of at least 30 wt %. The pet food may comprise a glucose-containing carbohydrate selected from a dextrin and a starch, for example an esterified starch. The pet food may comprise a chelant. The pet food may comprise an emulsifier. The pet food may comprise a core and a coating disposed on the core, and the core may comprise animal protein and the pet food may have an animal protein content of at least 30 wt %, and at least one of the core and the coating comprises a glucose-containing carbohydrate selected from a dextrin and an esterified starch. The pet food may comprise a core and a coating disposed on the core, and the core may comprise animal protein and the pet food may have an animal protein content of at least 30 wt %, and at least one of the core and the coating comprises a chelant. The pet food may comprise a core and a coating disposed on the core, and the core may comprise animal protein and the pet food may have an animal protein content of at least 30 wt %, and at least one of the core and the coating comprises an emulsifier.
- In some embodiments, the pet food comprises an edible pet food, wherein the pet food has a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt % (optionally from 15 to 40 wt %, optionally from 15 to 30 wt %, optionally from 15 to 25 wt %) and the pet food comprises a core and a coating disposed on the core, wherein the core comprises animal protein and the pet food has an animal protein content of at least 30 wt %, and at least one of the core and the coating comprises a glucose-containing carbohydrate selected from a dextrin and an esterified starch.
- In some embodiments, there is provided a pet food composition comprising from 1-10 wt % of at least one dextrin; and from 0.2-2 wt % of diacetyl tartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides (DATEM), wherein the pet food composition has a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt % (optionally from 15 to 40 wt %, optionally from 15 to 30 wt %, optionally from 15 to 25 wt %).
- In some embodiments, there is provided a pet food composition comprising: animal protein, calcium bound to a chelant, wherein the pet food composition has (i) a calcium content of at least 100 mg per gram of the composition and (ii) a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt % (optionally from 15 to 40 wt %, optionally from 15 to 30 wt %, optionally from 15 to 25 wt %).
- In some embodiments, there is provided an edible pet food, wherein the pet food has a moisture content of 15 to 50 wt % (optionally from 15 to 40 wt %, optionally from 15 to 30 wt %, optionally from 15 to 25 wt %) and the pet food comprises a core and a coating disposed on the core, wherein the core comprises animal protein and calcium bound to a chelant, and the coating comprises a species selected from an emulsifier, a dextrin and an esterified starch.
- In some embodiments, the glucose-containing carbohydrate is selected from a dextrin and a starch, for example an esterified starch. A starch may be defined as a carbohydrate comprising glucose units linked by glycosidic bonds, and it typically comprises amylose and amylopectin. Starch may comprise, by weight, 20 to 25% amylose and 75 to 80% amylopectin (in the absence of any modification). In the present disclosure the starch may be an unmodified starch or a modified starch. A modified starch may, for example, be an esterified starch.
- The dextrin and the starch are optionally modified dextrin or starch. Dextrin may be defined as a carbohydrate that is a polymer of D-glucose units linked by α-(1→4) or α-(1→6) glycosidic bonds. Dextrin may be produced by the hydrolysis of starch. The dextrin, which may be a maltodextrin, may comprise from 3 to 17 glucose units. The dextrin may be selected from maltodextrin, cyclodextrin, amylodextrin, (beta) or (alpha) Limit dextrin. In the present disclosure the dextrin may be an unmodified dextrin or a modified dextrin. A modified dextrin may, for example, be an esterified dextrin. An unmodified dextrin may indicate a dextrin that has not had any substituents, e.g. ester groups, added to it.
- The dextrin may have a dextrose equivalent of from 1 to 25, optionally from 1 to 13, optionally from 3 to 20. Dextrose equivalent (DE) is a measure of the amount of reducing sugars present in a sugar product, relative to dextrose (a.k.a. glucose), expressed as a percentage on a dry basis. The dextrose equivalent may be measured by the Lane-Eynon titration, involving the reduction of copper (II) sulfate in an alkaline tartrate solution.
- If the pet food comprises a core and a coating, preferably the core comprises an unmodified dextrin. The unmodified dextrin may be selected from maltodextrin, cyclodextrin, amylodextrin, (beta) or (alpha) Limit dextrin. It has been found that unmodified dextrin, particularly maltodextrin, assists in producing a product with favourable texture characteristics, such that the pet food is desirable, e.g. to a cat, and not too chewy or cohesive. For cats, for example, which typically rip and tear food, rather than chewing, the product was found to be acceptable and would not be refused as often as an equivalent food lacking the dextrin. The combination of the glucose-containing carbohydrate is selected, e.g. a dextrin, and an emulsifier was found to be particularly effective in creating a pet food that was not too chewy, despite, in some embodiments, containing a reasonably high amount of animal protein. The glucose-containing carbohydrate and/or the emulsifier may act to interrupt the protein structure in the pet food, to a certain extent, allowing it to be broken apart more easily in an animal's mouth.
- In some embodiments, the core comprises the maltodextrin. In some embodiments, the pet food comprises from 1 wt % to 6 wt % maltodextrin. In some embodiments, the pet food comprises from 1.2 to 1.6 wt % maltodextrin, optionally about 1.3 wt %, about 1.4 wt % or about 1.5 wt %
- In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a pet food, wherein the pet food has a moisture content of from 15 wt % to 50 wt % (optionally from 15 to 40 wt %, optionally from 15 to 30 wt %, optionally from 15 to 25 wt %, optionally from 18 wt % to 23 wt %) and comprises at least one dextrin and at least one emulsifier. In some embodiments, the pet food includes maltodextrin and/or DATEM.
- Indeed, in some embodiments, the pet food may comprise one or more of the following ingredients: maltodextrin, DATEM, OSA-modified starch and any combination thereof.
- Modified dextrins and modified starches, particularly esterified starches and esterified dextrins have been found to be effective in reducing or preventing ‘bloom’ formation, e.g. when the pet food is removed from a sealed package. When the pet food comprises a core and a coating, the coating preferably comprises a carbohydrate selected from a modified dextrins and a modified starch, more preferably a carbohydrate selected from esterified dextrins and esterified starch. These carbohydrates have been found to be particularly effective in reducing or preventing bloom formation when incorporated into the coating. It is believed that the bloom discoloration may be due to minerals migrating to the surface of the pet food from the core, and the present of these carbohydrates stabilizes the minerals, such that they do not form deposits. The combination of a carbohydrate selected from esterified dextrins and esterified starch and the use of a chelant, particularly when the core comprises the chelant and the coating comprises the esterified dextrin and/or esterified starch, has been found to be particularly effective in reducing or preventing bloom formation in the pet food. The chelant, when bound to a metal ion, slows the metal ion's migration from the core to the coating, but, even when the metal ion reaches the coating, the chelated metal ion is less likely to precipitate and form a deposit.

FIG. 1 is a schematic of a Texture Profile Analysis measurement, as described in Example 1 below. -
FIG. 2 is a plot of data comparing the properties of examples of a pet food of the present disclosure, as described in Example 4, with commercially available pet foods, and samples of cooked, but unprocessed meat. - The following test methods were used to characterise the properties of the novel pet food disclosed herein.
- Texture Profile Analysis (TPA) allows the determination of several parameters that characterise the texture of the sample. The sample is first incubated at 22° C. for 1 hour prior to testing. The samples are tested immediately after removal from the incubator. These samples are laid flat in the center of a flat surface such that the sample is compressed in the longitudinal direction. Using a texture analyser (Stable Micro Systems TA HD Plus) a compression plate of a size sufficient to compress the entire surface of the sample is used to compress the product to 50% strain, or 50% of its overall height at a speed of 1 mm/s. In the case of the 10 mm high sample, the distance to 50% strain is 5 mm. Once the required strain distance is reached, the probe is then moved upwards immediately at rate of 1 mm/s and stops 10 mm above the base plate, the original sample height. After completing the first compression cycle, the compression plate pauses for a period of 5 seconds in which the product, dependent on its material properties can recover some of its original shape and form. The second compression cycle is then carried out. The compression plate is moved down to the distance that was required to achieve 50% strain during first compression (in this case 5 mm) at a speed of 1 mm/s. After reaching the required strain distance, the probe is then moved upwards immediately at rate of 1 mm/s and stops at the original probe height.
- A schematic of a Texture Profile Analysis measurement is shown in
FIG. 1 . As can be seen, the measurement is presented as the force experienced by the probe against time elapsed. This emulates the compression from a first bite, followed by a second bite at the same location and is a well-established technique. With reference toFIG. 1 , L1 corresponds to the period during the test in which the probe is moving in the downward direction during the first compression and there is a force measured. L2 corresponds to the period during the test in which the probe is moving in the upward direction during the first compression and a force is measured. L4 corresponds to the period during the test in which the probe is moving in the downward direction during the second compression and a positive force is measured. L5 corresponds to the period during the test in which the probe is moving in the upward direction during the second compression and a positive force is measured. - The first parameter of interest from this measurement is the hardness. This is the peak force of the first compression of the sample. This need not correspond to the point of deepest compression. In the present work, this has also been normalised relative to the area of the sample upon which the platen acts to give a stress value. This value indicates the amount of resistance a tooth would encounter during a biting action. As noted above, a higher stress value can increase the risk of tooth fracture.
- The second parameter of interest is cohesiveness. This is a measure of work during the second compression relative to the work during the first compression:
-
- Cohesiveness therefore represents how well the product withstands a second deformation relative to how it behaved under the first deformation and so is a good indication of the ability of the sample to maintain a resistance to subsequent bites and offer a continuing cleaning action for the animal's teeth.
- The third parameter of interest is the instantaneous recoverable springiness (IRS), which is a measure of the springback during the first compression:
-
- IRS is therefore indicative of the springiness of the sample directly after the compressive downstroke.
- The fourth parameter is the retarded recoverable springiness (RRS), which is a measure of how well the product physically springs back after it has been deformed during the first compression. The springback is measured at the downstroke of the second compression relative to the first compression:
-
- Therefore, RRS is indicative of the amount of springback before the second compressive downstroke.
- The fifth parameter is the resilience, which is a measure of the area during withdrawal of the first compression relative to the area during the first compressive downstroke:
-
- The resilience is indicative of how much work the sample does in trying to regain its original shape, and so is another indication of the instantaneous springiness of the sample.
- The invention(s) is further illustrated by the following examples. It will be appreciated that the examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention as described above. Modification of detail may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
- The moisture content (i.e. water content) of the samples is measured using the following procedure. An aluminum dish is dried in an oven at 102±2° C. for at least one hour. The tray is removed from the oven and placed in a desiccator and allowed to cool for at least 30 minutes to reach room temperature. The weight of the dried dish is then recorded (A). 5±0.5 g of sample (e.g. pet food or composition) is placed in the dish and the dish is reweighed to give a combined weight of sample and dish (B). The sample-containing dish is then placed inside an oven held at 102±2° C. for 240 minutes±5 minutes, the time is recorded from the point when the oven has reached equilibrium and the oven door remains closed throughout this time. The sample-containing dish is then removed and placed in a desiccator for 30 minutes and then reweighed to give a final combined weight of dish and sample (C). The moisture content of the sample as a percentage of the total weight of the sample is

- The following is an example of a pet food according to the present disclosure.
- The semi-moist edible pet food in this Example, in this case a chicken-based product, was prepared using the ingredients shown in Table 1.
-
TABLE 1 Component Ingredients Wt. % M Chicken organs 82.85 (liver, hearts, viscera) D Vitamin mix 0.02 (including B1, E, B2, B6, B9) D Tetrapotassium 0.67 pyrophsophate D Taurine 0.09 D Sodium Chloride 0.89 D Pork skin protein 1.04 D Mineral mixture 0.03 (including Zn, Fe, Mn, Iodine) D Copper sulphate 0.13 D Choline chloride 0.32 D Calcium carbonate 0.88 D Blood plasma 7.35 D DATEM ester* 0.84 D Maltodextrin 1.52 D Potassium sorbate 0.25 L Antioxidant mixture 0.03 C Palatant powder 0.53 with phosphate C Palatant liquid 1.28 C Fat 1.28 - In forming the semi-moist edible pet food, first a core was formed. The core was formulated by preparing a meat emulsion by first grinding the meat components labelled ‘M’ in Table 1. The meat is frozen at the start of grinding, and gradually defrosts during the grinding, mixing and emulsification steps. Next, the mixture of dry ingredients labelled ‘D’ and liquid ingredients labelled ‘L’ were added to the ground meat components labelled ‘M’ and the composition mixed and emulsified.
- To produce beef and turkey products an equivalent recipe was used, where the chicken organs were replaced by beef or turkey organs.
- After mixing and emulsification, the core of the pet food is then shaped by pumping the pet food through a shaped nozzle.
- The shaped core is then cooked by using a combi-oven, which utilizes a combination of steam and heat to cook the composition at a temperature of about 150° C.-190° C. This procedure sets the shape by protein coagulation. In some cases, the shaped core is then cut to provide the final product shape and size.
- The cooked cores are then dried in a drier at 100° C. for approximately 40-50 minutes to reach a moisture content of 18 wt. %. (For beef, the same temperature is used, but the beef is cooked for 70-80 minutes; and for turkey, the same temperature is used, but the turkey is cooked for 75-90 minutes). This provides the core used in the semi-moist edible pet food. While drying at 120° C. made the treats more palatable to cats, the overall appearance of the product was not as desirable.
- The coating for the semi-moist edible pet food is formed by combining the C components (palatant powder with phosphate 17.24 wt. % of coating, palatant liquid 41.38 wt. % of coating, animal fat 41.38 wt. % of coating).
- The semi-moist edible pet food is then formed by spraying the coating (7.25 wt. % of the pet food) onto the entire surface of the core (92.75 wt. % of the pet food), forming a core and a coating disposed on the core.
- The semi-moist edible pet food may then be packaged in a modified atmosphere of nitrogen (70 wt. %) and carbon (30 wt. %).
- The texture profile analysis described in Example 1 was performed for this product. The resilience and cohesiveness of the semi-moist edible pet food made from chicken were similar to those found for Example 4.
- A consumer screening research study also indicated an improvement in OPE (owner perceived enjoyment) and a reduction in product refusals for cats, compared to products that were very similar, but lacked the maltodextrin and DATEM ester.
- The method of cooking using steam described above was also found to improve the palatability of the pet food to cats compared to the same food cooked through boiling (using the so-called ‘slice’ process).
- In further tests, it was found that a level of maltodextrin of 6.5 wt % or below of the whole pet food was preferable, since above 6.5 wt %, the protein structure in the pet food was found to be weakened—the product was not so easily processed, and was observed to break apart during the cooking step.
- The content of moisture, protein, fat, calcium, phosphorus, potassium and sodium were similar to the amounts described for Example 4 below.
- The following is an example of a pet food according to the present disclosure.
- The core was prepared as described in Example 3 except that calcium carbonate was replaced with calcium citrate (such that the quantity of calcium ions remained the same in the product to maintain the Ca:P ratio in the product) and maize starch modified hydrolysed sodium octenyl succinate was added to the coating at a sufficient quantity to form 3 wt. % of the overall coating pet food composition. This is included in the coating by combining it with water in a ratio of 50:50 or 55:45 and heating the composition before spraying the coating onto the core at a sufficient quantity to 5.5 or 6 wt. % of the overall pet food composition.
- The pet food of Example 4 was compared in tests to a reference pet food that was very similar, except the core contained calcium carbonate (as in Example 3) and coating lacked OSA hydrolysed starch. These modifications to the composition of the core (i.e. the calcium citrate) and coating (i.e. the OSA hydrolysed starch) disposed on the core provided improvements to the appearance of the product. When left in the presence of air, e.g. when removed from a package containing an atmosphere of nitrogen and carbon, it was found that the semi-moist edible reference pet food lost moisture, resulting in the appearance of light-coloured mineral deposits on the surface of the coating (so-called “bloom formation”). This appears to have been a result of migration of the minerals to the surface through moisture loss. The modification of the core and coating as described in Example 4 significantly reduced bloom formation such that, after 24 hours in air, no significant bloom was visible. Moreover, even after 96 hours, no significant bloom was visible. In contrast, the semi-moist edible pet food of Example 3 showed significant bloom after 24 hours.
- The feeding performance of the edible pet food of Example 4 (a chicken-based pet food) and similar edible pet foods in which the meat was beef and turkey instead of chicken, was assessed in a 60 cat difference test to ensure they met feeding performance targets. The three types of pet food were tested against a benchmark product (Dreamies Chicken) and met the target of no significant difference at the 95% confidence level.
- A consumer study was also conducted to measure owner perceived enjoyment (OPE) and refusals. In this test, 160 cats participated and each cat was fed 3 products—the semi-moist pet food of reference example (CC), a semi-moist pet food of Example 4(CN) and a benchmark product Dreamies Chicken (DC). The objective was to understand whether there was a significant difference perceived between these products by consumers in terms of OPE or refusals. All met the standard of less than 10% refusal. For OPE, there was no significant difference between CN & CC.
- Three types of pet foods of Example 4 were produced, each containing a different type of meat—turkey, chicken and beef, respectively. The resilience and cohesiveness of these products were tested and the results are shown in
FIG. 2 (P1 indicates a pet food of Example 4 containing turkey, P2 indicates a pet food of Example 4 containing beef, and P3 indicates a pet food of Example 4 containing chicken). InFIG. 2 , P4 is a sample of turkey meat (cooked, but otherwise not processed), P5 is a sample of beef meat (cooked, but otherwise not processed), P6 is a sample of chicken meat (cooked, but otherwise not processed). Samples P7 to P19 are commercially available cat foods, generally of the treat variety. - The chicken-based pet food of Example 4 was found to have the following content (per 100 g) of various components:
-
- moisture—19.1 g (as measured in accordance with BS 4401 Pt 3:1997, BS 4401-3:1997, ISO 1442:1997)
- protein—42.3 g (i.e. crude protein as measured in accordance with BS 4401 Pt 2: 1980, ISO 937-1978)
- fat—13.2% (as measured in accordance with EC 152/2009)
- calcium—1.05 g (as measured using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES))
- phosphorus—0.738 g (as measured using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES))
- potassium—1.4 g
- sodium—1.20 g (for this test, the sample is microwave digested in acid and determined by ICP-OES).
